Trivia

Glimmer doesn't make an appearance in the game. Though he is shown on the boxart of this game. This boxart was later used as the title screen for the European Game Boy Advance version of Donkey Kong Country 2.

This game has all of the same level and world names from Donkey Kong Country 2, except Crocodile Cauldron and Krem Quay being merged into a new world called Krem Cauldron and the levels Haunted Hall and Castle Crush from DKC2 are replaced by two new levels name Krazy Koaster and Dungeon Danger.

This is the only Donkey Kong Land series game where Funky Kong makes an appearance.
